“If LSU gets Willie Gay, honestly, you could make a case they’re getting a better linebacker,” Simmons said.

Simmons currently projects Gay to sign with the Tigers.

“I do think LSU is where he wants to be,” Simmons said.

I thought this was very interesting that Barton Simmons of 247 would say this, but I agree WILLIE GAY has just as much upside as dylan moses

Anyone who watches their film objectively will tell you the same. Willie will strike you and has very good instincts. Dylan would probably test better in a combine setting, but that doesn't mean a thing when you put the pads on.

Don't get me wrong it would be awesome to have Dylan Moses, but he wouldnt be a five star if he wasn't such a freak when he was younger.

I want the one who WANTS to be a Tiger. Obviously, that's not Moses.

I've said this before and I'll repeat it. While Moses may be a generational athlete, it doesn't translate on the field. He never popped out to me while he was at IMG and guys like Gay and Phillips succeed because you see instinct and I just don't think Moses has that. You can help a guy get stronger and quicker, but you can't teach instincts.

I won't speak from a point of ignorance, because I haven't taken the time to watch all of Gay's film, only a few clips here and there.

And I agree that it would be great if we'd gotten Moses.

I have, however, compared film on Phillips vs. Moses, and I'd take Phillips all day, every day, any day. Hands down looks to be steadily improving, whereas Moses seems to have hit a plateau, for now at least.

Hoping that we can land some combination of Chaisson, Gay, Phillips. Any two would be awesome. All three would be fap-worthy.

You fools are plain sad.

If Moses would have came here, you would be saying :

Moses > Gay
Moses > Phillips
Moses > ALL.

Quit being so pathetic. Grown arse men hating on a kid long after his decision has been made. You need to get some perspective in life.

Moses is better at covering his gap assignments and more disciplined while Gay is just let loose and watch out. Both like to hit and both have great upsides. Moses may be a better interior LB. I'd take either. Moses played much better competition, at least on the films posted on HUDL.

I've said that Mosses is a better athlete than he is a football player since he was at U-High. Majority of the plays he makes are on positive plays where he's chasing the ball. He really isn't/wasn't great when the ball is ran right at him. I'm sure he'll learn how to actually play LB at Bama and will reach his potential but maybe he's peaked. If so, being fast at 6'2 230 isn't a bad place to peak at.
